match specific problem needs

• Support from AMD engineers and partners throughout your 

development process

AMD’s next-generation stream processor, the AMD FireStream™ 9250 is 
specifically designed to accelerate critical algorithms in high performance 
computing (HPC), mainstream, and consumer applications.
The single PCI slot, one TeraFLOP, AMD FireStream 9250 includes1GB 
GDDR3 memory enabling developers to handle large, complex problems; 
deliver performance of up to eight GigaFLOPS per watt in single-precision, 
and more than 200 gigaflops raw double-precision performance.
The AMD FireStream 9250 stream processor includes a second-generation 
double-precision floating point hardware implementation, building on the 
capabilities of the earlier AMD FireStream™ 9170, the industry’s first 
GP-GPU with double-precision floating point support.
The AMD FireStream 9250’s compact size makes it ideal for small 1U 
servers as well as most desktop systems, workstations and larger servers.
